Abstract
A transport management device and a transport management method generate a travel plan and a driving plan. The transport management device manages a transport system in which goods and the like are transported by causing, on the basis of the travel plan, a vehicle to travel autonomously and without crew in a crewless autonomous travel section leading to a boarding point for a driver, and then having the driver drive the vehicle from the boarding point on the basis of the driving plan. The transport management device predicts a state of traffic in the crewless autonomous travel section, creates the travel plan and the driving plan, and changes the travel plan and the driving plan of the vehicle traveling in the crewless autonomous travel section in accordance with a traffic event occurring in the crewless autonomous travel section.
